Pet Illness

Pet Illness Care from the Veterinarians at Dessau Veterinary Clinic in Austin

At Dessau Veterinary Clinic we understand that your pet is an important part of the family and our veterinarians will treat your furry companion with the compassion and respect that they deserve. When our pets aren't feeling well it can be truly heartbreaking because we can tell that they aren't feeling like their usual self, but at the same time, they are unable to tell us what is wrong. Common illnesses for cats and dogs include stomach ailments or allergies, oral conditions, and lethargy caused by cancer and other serious conditions.

If your pet has any of the following symptoms and they last longer than a day or you notice them becoming worse, call us to schedule an appointment. Because pets are not able to tell us what is wrong or where their pain is coming from, it is always best to be on the side of caution and bring them in for a comprehensive examination. The team at Dessau understands the common ailments and most typical pet illnesses for our area, and can help get your companion animal feeling great again!
